I envision a Kangaroo in our future.
Think for a moment, of the ubiquitous RV, towing a Jeep.
Now. Plaster the top of the RV with solar panels. Power it with a plug-in hybrid powerplant, which for short bursts cross country, could run entirely from solar power.
Make the Jeep smaller. Something along the lines of the Venture One. (a soon-to-be available tilting three-wheel hybrid). Integrate the “pod”, right into the RV, so it charges from the same solar array.
Now sell the entire unit as one.
Presto. A reborn American auto industry.
Good for our technology job base, too...
Now sell the entire unit as one.
Presto. A reborn American auto industry. Actually that would give apartments a run for their $$. The ultimate road warrior. Need a worker in Las Vegas for 2 months ... no problem .... 6 months in Ohio .. done ... then onto whereever the job market takes the contractor.
Hmmm ... something like an ultra high tech bedouin.
